Bayhaqi 1440 — Ghusl after washing the dead

وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ السِّجِسْتَانِيُّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ، يَقُولُ وَسُئِلَ عَنِ الْغُسْلِ مِنْ غُسْلِ الْمَيِّتِ فَقَالَ: " يُجْزِيهِ الْوُضُوءُ " أَدْخَلَ أَبُو صَالِحٍ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فِي هَذَا يَعْنِي إِسْحَاقَ مَوْلَى زَائِدَةَ قَالَ: وَحَدِيثُ مُصْعَبٍ ضَعِيفٌ فِيهِ خِصَالٌ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَمَلُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَقَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: سَأَلْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْبُخَارِيَّ عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ وَعَلِيَّ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَا: لَا يَصِحُّ فِي الْبَابِ شَيْءٌ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ: وَحَدِيثُ عَائِشَةَ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ لَيْسَ بِذَاكَ.
(a) Imam Abu Dawud al-Sijistani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I heard Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal (may Allah have mercy on him) when he was asked about taking a bath after washing a dead person; he said: "Ablution suffices him." (b) This hadith of Mus'ab is weak (da'if); it contains some matters that are not acted upon. (c) The Shaykh said: Imam al-Tirmidhi (may Allah have mercy on him) asked Imam Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) about this hadith, and he said that Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal and Ali bin Abdullah (may Allah have mercy on them both) said: "Nothing in this chapter is authentic." Imam Muhammad (al-Bukhari) (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "The hadith of Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) is not fit to be used as evidence."
